Our Online Community
Coding doesn’t have to be a solitary activity. At Wack Club, we make remarkable things together, and in our Slack you’ll find awesome people to hang out with too. Code together, find your programming community, dream up something wild, or just #lounge.
Occasionally we invite someone we really want to speak to (like Sal Khan, George Hotz, and Lady Ada) and host an AMA with them.
